    I mean the dude thinks he’s been appointed by god as the next Moses.

    Ignoring the fact that his people aren’t enslaved, aren’t subjugated, aren’t being exploited and are in fact the enslavers and exploiters and subjugators…. That Christian’s aren’t being persecuted and are persecuting those who are different….

    And that nobody is going to pull up their lives and turn refugee over it, never mind walk to some other country and wander around for half most their adult lives with nothing to do…

    This guy actually thinks god talks to him.

    Also, this guy snoops on his son’s porn habits and shares his own porn habits with is son. Mike Johnson isn’t fit to stand within a thousand feet of a day care facility; never mind lead this country.

    Edit: also, also, these asswipes aren’t opposed to Johnson for any of the right (and numerous,) reasons- they just want him to be an even bigger asshole.

      If people like Johnson had their way, they’d be burning people like us alive in the parking lots of their local Piggly Wiggly.

        I don’t think that’s the case here:

        “Victoria is a good friend and Thomas is a good friend and they raise reasonable concerns,” Roy told Fox. "I remain undecided as do a number of my colleagues because we saw so many of the failures last year that we are concerned about that might limit or inhibit our ability to advance the president’s agenda.”

        His public position is “undecided,” and he’s giving credence to other Republicans who are opposed to Johnson. In this context, Roy is threatening to vote against Johnson for Speaker, “unless” something.

        Johnson surely knows what that something is, even if we the public do not.

    Johnson isn’t going anywhere, they don’t have the votes to replace him, and a drawn out fight will drive one of them to vote for Jeffries out of spite.
